I am currently on a business trip, and I found out earlier this evening, from my in-laws, that my beautiful wife has very unexpectedly past away. My purpose in posting this isn't to burden any of you with my grief, but I have to tell someone how frustrated, upset and how totally devastated I am. Life just isn't fair, and this just hurts too much. I am hoping to be home very early Thursday. Not sure what I will do once I get home. I have that feeling of everything being completely out of control.

Tom, I can't even begin to imagine how you must feel... I am speechless, I honestly cannot think of a single thing to say that I would deem to be a comfort. You and yours are in my thoughts and have my deepest sympanthies.

I am very sorry to hear that. The pain and loss of any family member is horrible and to be one so close the worst. I feel for you and hope you can find the strength to think of the happy times and get past the grieving. I am sure she would have wanted you to be happy. I know that doesn't mean much now but none the less true.There is nothing I or anyone can do to fix this or take the pain away.

Tom- I am so very sorry for your heartbreaking loss. You're right that there are times when life just isn't fair, when it's utterly tragic and almost beyond bearing. My prayers for your care.

Tom, If you need ANYTHING, call me and I'll do what I can. I recently had an emergency call to return home while in Albuquerque, and the helpless feeling of not being there is devistating. Fortunately, I had no loss of life to contend with. My thoughts are with you and your family. PM with Phone # to you.
Take care, later, Tom.

Tom, I lost my wife ten years ago, she was thirty two. My heart is breaking for you and your family. While it seems impossibble at this time, I hope, and believe, that your indescribable pain will gradually be somewhat offset by the beautiful memories that nobody can ever take away from you. Know that people you've never even met are thinking of you at this time. Good luck, Paul Molloy
